7 Tonnes Of Cocaine Seized

Since 23 tonnes of cocaine were seized and confiscated at Manzanillo, Mexico, the next seizure was the biggest on the past weekend when a Mexican Navy patrol ship with the help of the US Coast Guard intercepted a fishing vessel.

7 tonnes of cocaine were on the vessel that were seized and confiscated by the patrol ship in international waters. Also the five crew members were arrested. It’s yet unknown under which flag the fishing vessel was sailing.

Since a new president took office in 2006, 70 tonnes of cocaine were seized across the country.
